Island transport
Ask how zones are linked
Ask guest services onboard whether the island tram or shuttle can carry your mobility device, and where it stops.
Step by step
Getting ashore
Ships dock at Turbot Berth, an open-trestle pier. A walkway of about half a mile leads to the shore at Mabrika Cove, and a tram continues to the Goombay Cultural Center.
- 1Walk the pier
Allow 10–15 minutes from the gangway to the shore.
- 2Pick your cove
Family areas at Mabrika Cove; adults-only Serenity Bay.
- 3Visit Goombay
Bahamian music, Junkanoo and local artisans.
💡 Pro move: Go ashore early — the long pier and tram queues build up mid-morning.
